Prompt #80, It’s Post Your Poems Day!

We Write Poems:
Our prompt this week was something to perhaps clear your palate, find some roots in the fog of words. Pamela Sayers asked us to accumulate a minimum of twelve words, then write little snapshots in response to each word. Each small “poemlet” could stand on its’ own or perhaps have some relationship to the rest. Please remember to tell us how you selected your initial gathering of words (we’re nosey that way!).

Don’t have a poem yet? Perhaps read a few done by others here, be inspired. There’s still plenty of time to discover a poem for yourself!

Leave the links to your poems in the comments of this post, then go visit your fellow writers’ sites and read their work. Remember to leave only positive comments in the spirit of sharing and not critiquing. We look forward to reading your poems!

Please remember to include a link with your blog poem post that links right back to here, this “Post Your Poems Day”, so that others reading your poem can also share in this community poem experience – maybe even someone new to We Write Poems!

If you are new to WWP, please be welcome to look around and read. The full prompt description you can find under “Recent Posts” on the top right of our page.

It was very freeing to write 12 poemlets and not worry that they necessarily connected with one another . . . and then finding that in an odd way, they did flow as moments of time. Here is my try: 12 poemlets of time

Pamela, I apologize for not offering something along the lines of your prompt. I returned last night from a trip out of town. The following little ditty is a poem I had sitting in my unpublished file. I know it is a heavy subject to lift but try to help me answer: “What gives meaning to life?”.

To everyone, have a marvelous weekend, and….tell someone you love them.
